Website development environment

Hi.
I have a website which needs to be changed quite often.
Until now what I’ve done is duplicated the live website, so I’ll have a development website, and when finished making the changes, I swap between the two, i.e. cancel the live website hosting plan and add a hosting plan to the dev website, but since I pay on a yearly basis, this way I’m still paying for the canceled hosting plan.
So I was wondering if there’s a better way doing that?

Thank you,

You can duplicate pages within the existing project and work on those instead, then swap the URL of the old and new pages when you’re done.

Thank you @samliew, why didn’t I think of that…? :grimacing:

No problem! It does take experience and some planning to do stuff in Webflow.

Hi @samliew, I do have a problem with this solution since when I make changes to global classes in the same project, live pages are getting affected as well.
Is there any simple solution to this issue?

Thank you,
Naama.
